- 6I will freely sacrifice unto thee: I will praise thy name, O LORD; for it is good.הִנֵּ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים עֹזֵ֣ר אֲ֝דֹנָ֗י בְּֽסֹמְכֵ֥י נַפְשִֽׁי
- 7For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.ישוב יָשִׁ֣יב הָ֭רַע לְשֹׁרְרָ֑י בַּ֝אֲמִתְּךָ֗ הַצְמִיתֵֽם

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
